Can you not see?
Demagoguery
Obviates
More heir apparently
Aryan
Nation-states
Pro
Natalist,
Prison camps
But can’t concentrate
On the most blatant
Abuses of propagates
Power projects
The world over
Disorder
Is over now
Stand aside
Open the border
Spineless
Sock puppets
Won’t get their
Comeuppance
And angry mob rulers
Won’t soon to reluctance
Exude
Or refuse to write history
Tragically skewed
Any more than it favors
The boldest
Enslavers
Whose toxic fumes
Humans consume
Favorite flavors
Foreign
Dark
Money
Makes voting
Seem funny
And corn fed
Reserves
Purge the hurt
From my tummy
The strong man
Facade’s
A ventriloquist
Dummy
But all its consumerist
Gummies
Are yummy
And yet
The vets
Wander the cold
And go hungry
For crumby the
Food insecurity
System
And numb
We become
To its gun
Toting victim
Just blame the whole
Name of the game
On the working poor
Lurking class
Warfare
Us middle men
Paying for
And what does your heart say?
Am I such a toxin
Does it no more feel
First date fates
Interlocked in
The box
Growing old
Growing closer together
Or do the fake doctors
Know us
So much better?
Have they seen us weeping
Besides ourselves
Dying inside
Without sleeping
And keeping with
Daily turmoil
And turbulence
Ground us back
Safely and soundly
To furtherance
Seeing this through
To whatever
The end
Such a daunting prospectus
To sign with a pen
But obliged nonetheless
To commit to its binding
Promissory
Family
History
Finding
A better way forward
Than parents
Have failed
Prior lovers,
And brothers,
Relationships
Sailed
And its left us quite
Stranded
But not empty-handed
My soul has been yours
And you know
You’ve commanded
My plans since the start
On my heart
Made your mark
But if yours
Torn apart
Would cast me to the dark
And the spark
Flickers merely
To just be extinguished
And we just revert
To a pair of kind
Linguists
Then all I can say
Is I’m sorry I ****** it
Took everything good in my life
And corrupted
Its sacrosanct
Precious
Most uplifting bliss
To some poisonous
Deathly wish
Last kiss abyss
We all covet stages
Or platforms
To play on
Display what identity
Leads us astray on
Some tangent
Some rant
Raving rampage
Of madness
Celebrity complex
Of I
Have to have this
This status
Attention
The followers
Mention
My image
And likeness
My personal penchant
For myriad realms
Of myself economics
Authentic pretension
Anxiety tonics
Have long been its
Mass appeal
Crack Tok addiction
And fear of its makers
Our predisposition
But trust in its fakers
A base inclination
As well
If they’re selling
The end of humanity’s
Not worth rebelling
Supreme leaders
Schemers
Worst of nightmares
To the dreamers
And the fiends
That they convene with
Filter out
The in-betweeners
With obscenely toxic
Shock and awe
Campaigns
Of more in flames
And the replacement theorists
Still refuse
To use
Their smarter brains
To take a look around
The demographic
Map with all its
Party lines
Redistricted across it
To partition us
Like Palestine
Not trying to win
No, just stay afloat
Voting
Do my civic duty
To country
Imploding
Eroding
What constitutes
Quantum leap
Can’t compute
How we’ve transformed
To a nation
Of prostitutes
No more enslaved
Well per se,
There are wages
But they just stagnate
And the taxes
Outrageous
Work multiple jobs
But still living in cages
And leaders
Are corporate *****
Wars over stages
And we can’t afford
To uplift ourselves suasion
Our station in life
Remains solely unchanged
And
The wealth we aspired
To some day retire
In firm reassurance
Is set to expire
